"Your Highness, this confirms Yang's speculation that there are indeed excellent dragon veins underground in Windsor Castle. The ancestors of the past dynasties sleep on the dragon veins, which can always ensure prosperity in England. However, the tail of this dragon was cut off by the strait, and there were more variables... The dragon had resentment and turned into a war."

Located in the magnificent palace of Tudor style in Richmond, London, the green bamboo blind stick hits the red carpet, bringing up the stone floor under the carpet to make a muffled sound. Yang Gao wanders aimlessly in the Whitehall. His steps are amazing. As a blind man, he can accurately avoid any obstacles and talk freely.

He was a newcomer in London, and people called him the 'Mr. The referee who entered the palace was the queen's favorite, Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester.

The Earl was supreme in England because of her love, and she was in the manners of the princess at any royal ceremony. At some point, the Queen would call him another monarch in public, and Drake's voyage was also sponsored by him.

At this time, the Earl of Leicester was standing beside the queen, whispering to explain the fortune teller's origin, saying: "Mr. Lamb's name originated from a storm that took place in Southampton and was related to prophecy."

"The Ming merchants arrived in England for the second time. There were six ships docked in Southampton. The lamb wanted by Chen Mu hid on one of the ships full of porcelain." Earl Leicester whispered: "He was lonely and helpless, and he was embarrassed. He had only a pair of smelly blankets on his body. He looked like he was about to die when he was driven off the boat."

The queen seemed not interested in the secrets about the Lamb God, and just treated them as a rare leisurely accidental pastime, and asked lightly: "And you saved him?"

"No, no, no, it's another Ming captain from the New World. His name is the second Tang, and he is a very capable person."

Earl Leicester blinked at the queen and said, "General Chen's illegal."

Elizabeth was tidying up her wig, absent-minded: "Thief, liar, or robber?"

"According to Drake, the people in the New World call him Tang Er. Perhaps the thief is more accurate. He was indeed imprisoned by General Chen for this, but because he bribed General Chen's important commander Fu, he saved him from his death... His Highness, what are you worthy of the second Tang ship? "

"Seaweed egg flowers?" The queen slapped the fan with chicken feathers and smiled exaggeratedly with her white face: "I like drinking that, just like those who claim to be Hui merchants bring cigarettes, it is a good trade item."

The Count also laughed in response, and finally shook his head seriously and said, "No, he stole General Chen's arsenal, and the ship was equipped with three hundred Ming army standard mesh guns and twelve large bronze circumferential cannons. The Ming army defeated the Spaniards with these."

Hearing this, Elizabeth finally raised some interest and asked, "Is that his trade product? Or his weapons... three hundred bullets, don't he sell crossbows and longbows?"

Not to mention England, which has a small country and a small population, three hundred clamps, especially the Ming clamps, even Fei Lao Er, who ruled half of Europe, could be happy for a while. This means that the equipment of the entire musket company is in a standard form.

Europe has no concept of standardization at this time. Not to mention weapons, even military uniforms have not formed standardization. This is incomparable to ancient China. They have almost no professional army that belongs to the country.

But Spain already has some signs of professional army and equipment.

Muskets are not standard, what will they look like? Just like Chen Mu captured in Haojing in his early years, there are clamps, early flintlocks, and large clamps, all kinds, different lengths and different calibers, and England is even more backward.

Their mesh guns also have snake rod muskets without sight gates and reeds and are arranged together with the mesh guns. The range, killing and accuracy are much smaller than those of the mesh guns.

Even so, this number does not surprise Elizabeth, as Britain has its own national conditions.

Almost all lords are longbowmen and crossbowmen, and few lords are willing to spend money on their recruitment soldiers to buy gunpowder.

This is not because muskets are difficult to build. There are many craftsmen and apprentices in England. They built more than a dozen warships over 100 tons in three years. Making muskets with rolled iron pipes is not difficult for them who can make wrought iron Franchise cannons.

What is difficult is the increasing gap in gunpowder in the country and the increasingly complex international situation at sea... The urine and slurry from the church chairs were bought by merchants engaged in overseas trade. The price of the gunpowder soared and the army could not afford it.

Why could Gustav II sweep across Shinra with muskets decades later? Because there is a mine at home, Swedish saltpeter mine.

England is not good, England has nothing, there are many velvet factories.

There are only two ways to get gunpowder. You can either buy it at a high price from mainland Europe, or pick up feces, salts, and church chairs.

Church chairs are also a high-yield place for nitrogen. Because people have three urgent needs, and church service cannot get up. This shows that England is more enlightened than France. France does not know the high-end technology of collecting urine, silt, and the sea overlord of England was picked out from church chairs.

The people of the whole country dragged half a year, and the pirate Drake went out to fight a battle.

What kind of coercion gun is needed? The longbow is pretty good.

After receiving the answer from Earl Leicester about the lack of a longbow, Elizabeth was a little disappointed, but soon moved to the twelve large bronze cannons. With the Spanish Fellow II, he always wanted to beat him up. In the queen's opinion, the artillery was the only way to defend and fight.

"Have we bought them?"

"Tang Er did not sell the muskets and cannons. Although his guns and guns were very good, they were too expensive, so expensive that no one would accept his price; but he saved Mr. Lamb, in return, said his prophecy for the first time in England if he went to sea, he would return without success."

Earl Leicester turned his head and said, "The result is really that way. They went to sea and encountered a storm. Many people died on the ship. In return for warning, Tang Er gave 100 muskets and six cannons to the Black Sheep, and I bought these weapons from the Black Sheep at a lower price."

Speaking of this, the Count Leicester looked serious and whispered: "He also predicted that I would be assassinated by assassins from the East, you know, Anjou of France Valois, he wanted to be the king of England."

Elizabeth's expression when looking at Yang Gao also changed. She knew that the assassination happened not long ago. A Catholic from France mingled beside the Duke of Anjou, hid in the attic and used a French-made mast gun to shoot at Earl Leicester. After the assassin failed, the second gunshot sounded in the attic. When the palace guards went upstairs, they found that the assassin had hit her heart with another flintlock pistol.

It was a very strange but no evidence that it was a framed assassination.

"He also told me that there will be food shortages in Ireland." Earl Leicester seemed to have firmly believed in Yang Gao, and said: "I think it is a good thing to have a rebellion in Ireland at this time. If all this really happens, His Highness must send me to quell the rebellion. I will crown you with honor."
